Carlos Sainz acknowledges in an interview with DAZN that he has had to live through a complicated time due to everything that the news of the signing of Lewis Hamilton for Ferrari. This movement has caused the ’55’ to be, right now, without a team for the 2025 season.
The Madrid native warns from the outset that this year he has decided to modify his routines. “It has been a shorter preseason than usual, but I can assure you that I have recharged my batteries well. I have changed my way of preparing quite a bit.. I have a new coach and I have started with set-up of new training and physiologist. With that, what I’m waiting for is that changes will come to face the course as prepared as possible,” reveals the ’55’.
Change in preparation
Furthermore, Sainz confesses why he has chosen to try new things. “I wanted to open a new stage. This year I am going to put much more emphasis on the cardiovascular aspect. Having a better aerobic base, which should initially help me better manage the jet-lag. And, also, better manage energy levels. There are many races (24). And, of course, I wanted to have fun when I trained. That way I exercise more and better,” he emphasizes.

How SF24 sees
On the other hand, Carlos offers his opinion on the SF24. “The first thing I have to say is that it seems to me a very nice car. And very different from last year. There are some pretty big changes that I hope are going in the right direction.. It is also true that all cars already have the same tendencies. Let’s see who gets it right. And the truth is that there is little left to know,” says the Spanish competitor.
And he adds: “There are things in our car that are very characteristic of the usual Ferrari and then there are details that refer to Mercedes, Aston Martin or Red Bull. All the teams take things with tweezers from the others and incorporate them into their cars. You can see that people want to lighten weight and you can see that they are saving on paint. We have innovated this year. “There are things underneath that you can’t see in the car that we hope will give us speed.”
Forecast
On the other hand, ’55’ gives his prediction on who will dominate in 2024. “They will be the same as last year and we have to see if someone from the middle of the table manages to make a qualitative leap and sneaks in among the leading teams.. With this new regulation, if you get it right you can unlock a lot of potential in the car. There are the examples of Aston Martin and McLaren to demonstrate it. Let’s see if this year it’s our turn to hit the right note,” he warns.
Next comes the most interesting part. Carlos explains how he faces the upcoming season. “Full of energy and motivation. Although I have to admit that it has been a pre-season and some strange days. But once the car is presented, my mind can’t stop thinking about how the car and the first race are going to go. I’m looking forward to putting on my helmet and giving it my all this year.. Let’s see if that moment comes and we can focus solely and exclusively on getting the most out of the car,” he details.

Surprise even for him
Then he brings out his sincerity when he reveals how he experienced the bombshell of Hamilton’s signing for the Scuderia. “Just as no one in the world of F1 expected it, I didn’t expect it either.. It’s no secret that it has been a surprise to everyone. It is true that I was able to find out a little in advance and prepare myself both emotionally and psychologically for what I knew was going to be announced. They are things of life, It is a door that closes for many others that are going to open.so looking forward to seeing what the future holds,” he explains.
And adds: “There are very attractive options for the future. Obviously, Ferrari is an emblematic team and one where I have enjoyed a lot all these years. Once you are a Ferrari driver, you are a Ferrari driver forever. I will leave at the end of the year with that benefit of having been a Ferrari driver, having won races and pole positions, with a good feeling knowing that I have done my homework. There is still a year left to demonstrate and do things well, but I am quite happy with my time here at Ferrari. “I want to finish it as best as possible and see what happens next,” she says.
Message for the Spanish fans
Finally, the 29-year-old runner says goodbye with a message for his fans. “I want to tell everyone not to worry about me, I am perfectly fine and have enormous desire and motivation for this season and for what may come in the future of my career.”. There is still a lot to enjoy this year, everyone in red. And for all,” he says to close his speech.
